Hey, i'm planning on building a gaming budget pc and i intend to use an i7 920 and an nvidia GTX 660 and 8GB of ram and all of this makes arround £161 without the motherboard (LGA 1366), and those are quite expensive and very hard to find on ebay at a good price. So i wanted to know if there's any other builds using the same cpu or gpu (or different ones with a better performance vs price) and a cheaper motherboard. 

 

Many thanks, Bruno.

 Why are you getting a PC with lga 1366? should just try to find a cpu+mobo combo imo
